Separate read and change actions

Review the actions available to AI, label each one as reading or changing, and put actions that make changes behind human approval.

A reading error produces a poor answer. A changing error can send a message, delete a file, or make a purchase. They need different controls.

1. 01Label each action as reading or changing.
2. 02Limit permissions to what the task requires.
3. 03Require human approval before actions that make changes are performed.
